谏言如镜：魏征的清廉

魏征，唐代杰出的政治家和著名的宰相，以其直言不讳和清廉俭朴著称。他提出了“薄赋敛，轻租税”、“居安思危”、“兼听则明，偏听则暗”等思想，深受人民的称道。魏征病危时，家中仍无像样的房子，其夫人裴氏也是一名廉洁、俭朴的好女人，历史上出名的贤内助。唐太宗曾想为魏征修缮房屋，但被魏夫人以魏征习惯简朴生活为由婉拒。魏征去世后，唐太宗本想举行盛大葬礼，但魏夫人再次以魏征一生俭朴为由，请求举行简单葬礼。

他谏说唐太宗“兼听则明，偏信则暗”、“水能载舟，亦能覆”、“居安思危，戒奢以俭”、“任贤受谏”、“薄赋敛轻租税”等，被唐太宗称为是一面可知得失的镜子：“以铜为镜，可以正衣冠；以古为镜，可以见兴替；以人为镜，可以知得失。魏征殁，朕亡一镜矣！”

魏征的清廉形象，千百年来深入人心。

Admonitions as Mirrors:

The Integrity of Wei Zheng

Wei Zheng was an outstanding politician and a famous prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, known for his forthrightness and frugality. He advocated ideas such as "Impose light taxation and levies," "Be vigilant in times of peace," and "Listen to both sides to be enlightened, listen to one side to be blind," which earned him widespread admiration. Even when Wei Zheng was critically ill, his home remained modest and lacked decent housing. His wife, Pei, was equally known for her integrity and simplicity, earning a reputation as a virtuous woman in history. When Emperor Taizong of Tang offered to renovate Wei Zheng's house, Pei politely declined, citing Wei Zheng's preference for a simple life. After Wei Zheng's death, Taizong planned a grand funeral, but Pei requested a simple ceremony, once again citing Wei Zheng's lifelong frugality.

He advised Emperor Taizong of Tang with sayings such as "To listen to both sides is to be enlightened; to believe only one side is to be in the dark," "Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it," "When living in peace, think of danger; when indulging in luxury, practice thrift," "Appoint the wise and accept advice," and "Impose light taxes and levies." Emperor Taizong praised him as a mirror through which one could discern both gains and losses: "Using a copper mirror can I put my dress right, using the mirror of history I can see the direction and reflect on my rulings, while using a gentleman as a mirror I can correct my own flaws. Now that Wei Zheng passed away, I’ve lost one mirror!"

Wei Zheng's image of integrity has been deeply rooted in people's hearts for thousands of years.
